Bug Description

On the BQ Aquaris E4.5 I can use the GPS, but whenever I set the GPS to use wifi/mobile data it only fixes when Wifi is near.
Also when I change the setting back to GPS only, I need to reboot before the setting is applied.

I am using stock BQ Aquaris E4.5 with Ubuntu 14.10 (all updated)
